Abstract:<p><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p>
<p><strong>Background and Objective:</strong> Statins can induce myopathy; however, the impact on muscle regeneration remains unclear. β2-agonists may mitigate statin myotoxicity. This study investigated the effects of simvastatin and formoterol on skeletal muscle regeneration and injury using a rat model.<br /><strong>Methods:</strong> Adult Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 90) were divided into three groups: c… Show more
